It’s been a wild week of weather for much of Tasmania, with strong winds, flood warnings, snow, heavy rain and some of the warmest July temperatures in years.
The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) reported that kunanyi/Mt Wellington was lashed with 194.2mm of rain in the three days to 9am on Wednesday, enough water to temporarily uncover the elusive ‘Disappearing Tarn’.
The unpredictable conditions also brought “unseasonably warm” temperatures, with Wynyard in the state’s north-west reaching a top of 17.7 degrees on Tuesday.
“That was the second-warmest July day in 37 years,” Weatherzone forecasters said.
Cape Grim, on the north-west tip of the state, also recorded its warmest July day in 11 years on Tuesday, reaching 15.2 degrees.

The BOM forecasted showers and snow to 800 metres overnight, with mostly fine conditions elsewhere.
Showers are expected to linger in western, central and southern areas this morning, while frost is likely in the north.
Friday will bring showers to the west and north, with fine conditions elsewhere until showers extend statewide later in the day.
Isolated showers are forecast for Saturday, with snow possible to 900 metres, before showers in the west extend to the north on Sunday.
